Copying a distribution list to a different computer can be done easily, but the first method that comes to mind is not particularly obvious.

First, let’s think about sending individual Contacts to someone else for their copy of Outlook. You can do this easily by creating a new email in Outlook and then dragging the individual Contact icon into the new email. That will make an email attachment out of the Contact.

Guess what? The same technique works with a distribution list!

Then, you can send the email to the other person, who can double-click on the attachment to install the Contact (or distribution list) into their copy of Contacts.

All you need is an email account that is accessible from the new computer.

As an alternative, you can use a flash drive. Drag and drop the distribution list icon into a folder on the flash drive.

Then, plug the flash drive into the other computer, open the folder where you stored the icon, and double-click on it.
